Yes, there are female Star Wars fans, but not as many as there are male Star Wars fans.

You should have said that from the beginning.

Regardless, you might ask yourself why.

Why are there more female fans of Sex in the City than there are male fans? Why were there more male fans of American football than there are female fans? Men and women sometimes have different tastes.

The latter is another one that you’re not quite as right as you think you are on. Rabid football fans are split almost evenly between men and women these days.

But is it a problem if more men than women like Star Wars?

Why should it be?

I view it as a problem, because there’s no reason for it, and I tend to favor more equality in these situations. But this is a concept you seem not to understand.

Your viewing it as a problem does not make it so. But maybe there is a reason for it and you are just not aware.

Hahaha.

Anyway, I never said it’s a problem if more men like Star Wars than more women (as an example). The problem is that women are actively discouraged from liking Star Wars. Look how the male fanbase treats women fans and women characters, or look how hard it is to find female-oriented Star Wars clothes or toys (especially pre-TFA). Just two examples.
